The newly designed XO tenor trombones are considered to be at the forefront of hand craftsmanship while utilising computer-assisted design practices to ensure unparalleled consistency. Leading musicians and instrument designers from around the globe have collaborated, researched, and tested various features and specifications to create a family of truly powerful instruments.
The XO 1236 provides players with a superb response and sound that can be sculpted to perfection in any register. Its rich, commanding tone immediately establishes a link between the player and the audience, or rounds out the harmonious depth of a professional ensemble.
FEATURES
- Reverse Main Tuning Slide
- By reducing resistance, the reverse main tuning slide provides free-blowing response.
- Acoustically Optimized Brace Design
- This specially designed bracing structure, including the re-engineered socket and flange connection points, optimize overtone response, providing perfect tonal balance.
- Two-piece Bell
- The two-piece bell ensures consistent thickness with controlled resonance.
- Interchangeable Leadpipes
- The interchangeable leadpipes allow players to personalize their playing experience. We offer three different leadpipes: -Yellow brass, length 200 mm: Our standard leadpipe, less resistance for players that prefer an open, free-blowing feel -Yellow brass, length 240 mm: Provides that little extra resistance for better slotting and articulation -Sterling silver, length 245 mm: Same dimensions as our standard leadpipe, offers solid fundamentals and a clear attack
- Removable Counterweight System
- The XO three-pieces-balance-counterweight system can be installed or removed with a threaded cap easily. It allows the performers to balance their instruments and offers a better playing experience. The performers can decide whether to use the counterweight system depending on their personal preferences.
